Netscape

Netscape is not just a browser, it’s a browsing suite, but is now discontinued.  Netscape users have been told to switch over to Firefox.

Netscape 2.02 apparently doesn’t support CSS or JavaScript.  DQ’d.

Netscape 3.04 also doesn’t seem to support CSS, but gave an error telling me that functions are impossible.  DQ’d.

Netscape 4.80, finally, supports css, but not too well.  It does not support JavaScript in the way I would want it to, as you can see there are errors.

Netscape 6.2 supports JavaScript correctly.
